Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution Electrophile substitutes for a hydrogen on the benzene ring. sigma complex substituted => Chapter 17 2
Chapter 17 2 Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution Electrophile substitutes for a hydrogen on the benzene ring. =>
E+ Mechanism Step I:Attack on the electrophile forms the sigma complex. E sigma complex(arenium ion) Step 2:Loss of a proton gives the substitution product. H H base E base-H H H Chapter 17 3

Chlorination and lodination Chlorination is similar to bromination. Use AIClg as the Lewis acid catalyst. lodination requires an acidic oxidizing agent,like nitric acid,which oxidizes the iodine to an iodonium ion. H HNO3 +1/2 I2>I+NO2 H2O => Chapter 17 6
Chapter 17 6 Chlorination and Iodination • Chlorination is similar to bromination. Use AlCl3 as the Lewis acid catalyst. • Iodination requires an acidic oxidizing agent, like nitric acid, which oxidizes the iodine to an iodonium ion. H + HNO3 I 2 1/2 I + + + + NO2 + H2 O =>
Nitration of Benzene Use sulfuric acid with nitric acid to form the nitronium ion electrophile. H H HSO4 0 H-O-N 60* N NO2*then forms a sigma complex with benzene,loses H+to form nitrobenzene.= Chapter 17 7
